Oak Bluffs Massachusetts

For the first time, Malia and Sasha Obama are missing from the family’s vacation on this coastal Massachusetts island as they finish up at summer camp. White House spokesmen will only say that they will reunite with their parents later this week, without giving a specific date.

With their daughters yet to join them on vacation, the Obamas went out for dinner Tuesday night at the Beach Plum Inn, voted the most romantic getaway on Martha’s Vineyard by Martha’s Vineyard magazine.
